    @Shyam:

    Are you talking about bodies stuffed in gunny bags or just unending target killings?

    We must all be INSANE if we think that target killings will resolve any problems! Inhuman and barbaric deeds of unethical people with no culture or creed. How long does one think the killings can go on?!

    It is a sad truth that people of karachi have choosen the path of self destruction by electing those people who do not know anything except killing and reprisal killings.

    I believe most of the people are not really innocent.In past they involve in heinous crime. And they are or their love one paying the price.
    This is because our police and justice system is not their doing there part.

    If people in Karachi will keep on dying in target killing, a day will come when the entire families of the target would also be killed – then no body will be left to kill each other – the once upon a time city of lights will become city of darkness – and every where dead bodies would be lying on the roads in gunny bags.

    The first target of the Police should be to shoot at sight the target killers to save the innocent and precious human lives.

    Where is the new Prime Minister?
